About ZR Plasmid Miniprep™ - Classic
The ZR Plasmid Miniprep™-Classic is designed for efficient isolation of plasmid DNA from E. Coli using a traditional 3-buffer (P1, P2, P3) procedure that is simple, rapid, user-friendly, and reliable. It features a modified alkaline lysis protocol together with a unique Fast-Spin column to yield high quality plasmid DNA in minutes. The buffers are color-coded (red, green, yellow) for easy determination of complete cell lysis and neutralization. The innovative Zymo-Spin™ llN columns yield endotoxin-free plasmid DNA. Plasmid DNA purified using the ZR Plasmid Miniprep™-Classic is well suited for use in restriction endonuclease digestion, sequencing, DNA ligation, cloning, PCR, bacterial transformation, transfection, etc.
